Give me a traffic jam any day instead of yet another "signal failure" or "regulating the service" or "passenger action" or whatever other feeble excuse for their incompetence they'd picked that morning by chucking a dart at a board. They're just liars as well as useless. B2003 You should try using public transport outside of London. It's not much use when your last bus leaves at 7 o'clock, or there's no service at all on a Sunday. While the Underground may have its problems, it does generally work, and on the occasions I've used the Piccadilly line to Heathrow I've not had any problems. |

@mid.individual.net: You must be loaded... a cab from my house (Finchley) to any of the 5 London airports would cost a bomb! Thankfully... every time I fly (which is fairly often) I use public transport and it works fine. Even with a minor delay, it's still fine, since I leave a little bit of extra time, and check-in online, so can arrive and zoom straight through to the aircraft. Methinks you are just a bit negative generally. Sometimes, things do go wrong, yes, but I use 3 Tube lines and a bus daily, and 9.5 times out of 10, it works like it should.

If you think that what I wrote is a lie then just say so. Well, lets be honest , you're hardly going to critiscise your employer in a public forum, or not if you want to keep your job at least. So anything you say about the tube is immediately suspect. Also I'm quite well aware of the libel laws thanks. B2003 |

I was, however, referring to my experiences when I lived in another major British city. The transport system in London does work most of the time. You seem to either have an axe to grind or are simply a troll. |
